The fall of Samaria began in Year 4 of Hezekiah (2Ki 18:9-10) and ended in his Year 6 corresponding to Year 2 of Sargon II (720 BCE). There were 65 years between the annexation of Samaria (Is 7:8-9), the death of King Pekah and the enthronement of King Hosea by Tiglath-pileser III during his 8th campaign (738 BCE) and the deportation of King Manasseh (2Ch 33:11; 2Ki 17:24) and the people of Samaria (Ezr 4:2) by Esarhaddon during the eponymy of Atarilu (673 BCE).

When the Assyrian army (under Shalmaneser or his general) reached the land of Israel, Hoshea appeared before him and was arrested (v. 4b). Shortly afterwards Shalmaneser died, and it is not clear whether a siege of Samaria was under way during his last year. When Sargon ascended the throne, he was detained for a year and a half in Assyria, trying to curtail the inner rebellion and solidifying his rule. The Samaritans, who's king was held in prison... were then able to join the coalition of Assyrian vassal states and provinces crystallizing under the leadership of the King of Hamath and support by Egypt. Only after Sargon's victories in the North and South did the city of Samaria come under siege, on which apparently did not last long. Three years passed between Hoshea's imprisonment and the conquest of Samaria by Sargon, a period regarded by the Deuteronomistic historian as years during which the city was under siege. Sargon II is the king who conquered Samaria, annexed it to the Assyrian territory, deported it's people...

2 Kings 17: 1In the twelfth year of Ahaz king of Judah, Hoshea the son of Elah began to reign in Samaria over Israel, and he reigned nine years. 2 And he did what was evil in the sight of the LORD, yet not as the kings of Israel who were before him. 3 Against him came up zShalmaneser king of Assyria. And Hoshea became his vassal and paid him tribute. 4 But the king of Assyria found treachery in Hoshea, for he had sent messengers to So, king of Egypt, and offered no tribute to the king of Assyria, as he had done year by year. Therefore the king of Assyria shut him up and bound him in prison. 5 Then the king of Assyria invaded all the land and came to Samaria, and for three years he besieged it. 6 In the ninth year of Hoshea, the king of Assyria acaptured Samaria, band he carried the Israelites away to Assyria.

2 Kings 18:9 In the fourth year of King Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah, king of Israel, xShalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria and besieged it, 10 and at the end of three years he took it. In the sixth year of Hezekiah, which was the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, Samaria was taken.

Among the most prolific early rebels against Sargon were several of the previously independent kingdoms in the Levant, such as Damascus, Hamath and Arpad. Hamath, led by a man called Yau-bi'di, became the leading power of this Levantine revolt, but was successfully crushed in 720 BC.[25] After Hamath had been destroyed, Sargon continued by defeating Damascus and Arpad in battle at Qarqar in the same year.
